CHICAGO, May 19-The temper of the crowd
was decidedly bearish at the opening of Change
to-day June wheat. which after the break of
1c yesterday, opened weak to-day at S7S4c, and
at once sold down TO S714c The crowd, with but
few exceptions, sold freely Some support was
found at S714c, and fifteen minutes after the
start June wheat had recovered to S71Sc In
their anxiety TO break the market the crowd
soon sold themselves short. II was discovered
after the first excitement had worn itself away
that the clique had purchased large amounts of
juno wheat around S7lS0D671hc, and the crowd,
who few minutes before were reckless sellers,
were anxious buyers June ran up from She
to SS1Sc speedily, as it declined at the opening.
Before the advance of the early morning was
stopped June wheat sold as high as 6S3Ac but
for the remainder of the session it was about
stationary at 3S14c, trading being fairly active.
One of the bear features in the market in the
early morning was the announcement of TIC
rate on wheat from Minneapolis, which cheap
ened Minneapolis wheat delivered here &c per
bushel When the clique took hold, however
this feature was forgotten. The announcement
of seaboard clearances of 525, 900 bushels of
wheat for yesterday was an aid to the advance.
Corn opened weak at 40}4Gl 401Sc for July and
sold to 4034c. Afterward, in sympathy with
wheat, il recovered TO 41c. At the close it again
sold down TO 408c for July, trading at that
figure being quite heavy. Unexpected large
receipts Of hogs made provisions weak at the
opening. July ribs and lard both started SC
lower at 81 ~ for the former and Sc 20 for the
latter However, before midday they had both
stiffened up, in sympathy with wheat and corn,
and July ribs closed at 81 80 and July lard at
